Excellent experience! Nice boat, comfy seats. Gorgeous sunset views. Fun fact-filled tour of water front homes and yachts of the mega rich. Easy parking right there; with the parking slip provided at the end of the tour the cost drops to $10 - nice! We paid extra for the bow seating and that was great. Knowledgeable, funny tour guide, and a great experience overall. Great from start to finish.

Super fun, great guys leading the cruise! We stayed to the inlets because the ocean would have been too rough. Everything was beautiful, it was the perfect amount of time and they had drinks and snacks for purchase (not too expensive).

You dont need to be there...

Monica_T, Jul 2026
You dont need to be there 20 or 30 mins before. Unless you just need time to find the place. There is no one waiting to check you in or sign waivers, if you missed the email, that you didn't know you were going to get, until the boat arrives at the dock with the crew. There are no obvious signs or instructions as to what actually happens. This tour is short. Left dock at 6:20 and arrived back in less than 50 mins. The boat itself was great as was the crew.

Stephanie_M, Jun 2026
Plenty chill ride, was very calm ride while playing music. Chilled out on the ocean for a little watching the sunset then came back where the captain told us about random things around Ft. Lauderdale. Overall pretty solid and worth the money.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for your review! We're so glad you enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere, music, and sunset on the water. It's great to hear you also enjoyed learning about Fort Lauderdale from our captain along the way. We appreciate your kind words and are happy you found the experience to be worth it. We hope to welcome you back on board again soon!

Ok

Teri_E, Jun 2026
Boat was comfortable. Crew was nice and respectful. It was not what I was expecting for a sunset cruise. We cruised slowly by yachts and multimillion waterfront homes. Nothing wrong with it, but I was hoping to see more of Fort Lauderdale.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you found the boat comfortable and our crew friendly and respectful. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts about the route. Our sunset cruise is designed to showcase Fort Lauderdale's beautiful waterfront, including the Intracoastal Waterway, luxury homes, and yachts, while offering a relaxing experience on the water. Depending on conditions, the route may vary slightly from cruise to cruise. We appreciate you joining us!

Kim_M, Jun 2026
It was good. There wasn’t as much information as I thought there would be about the area, houses, businesses.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you had a good experience and appreciate your suggestion for more information about the area and local landmarks. We'll certainly take it into consideration as we continue to improve our tours.

Fun facts about the rich and famous.

John and Dom made it a great experience. I liked the mix of canal and ocean ride. John provided a lot of cool knowledge about the yachts and mansion houses.

Response from Host, May 2026

Abigail_A, Apr 2026
I booked this tour a week or so before I get to Florida on the day of they canceled. Still haven’t gotten a refund

Hi Abigail, we're so sorry for the disappointment, especially with a cancellation. That is not the experience we want for any of our customers. Refunds on Viator bookings can take up to 10 business days to process once approved, so yours may still be in progress. Please reach out to us directly at Sea Rocket with your booking details so we can check on the status and make sure it gets resolved for you.

Evening in Fl

Wayne_S, Apr 2026
Very good. Crew was professional and friendly. Boat was very clean. Only down side they did not have any non alcoholic drinks. This would be a 4 and 1/2 stars if we could.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hi Wayne, thank you! We're glad you enjoyed the cruise and the crew. We're sorry we were out of non-alcoholic drinks that day. We didn't get our usual shipment in time, but that's on us. Thanks for cruising with Sea Rocket in Fort Lauderdale!

Sea Rocket

Constance_F, Apr 2026
Get there early!! Enjoyed the sunset with planes flying over. Actually missed the first reservation but got the next one through the Sea Rocket website.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hi Constance, good advice on arriving early! We always recommend getting there 30 minutes before departure to give everyone enough time to park and find us. We're glad you were able to hop on the next cruise and enjoy the sunset. Thanks for joining us at Sea Rocket Fort Lauderdale!

Different that what we expected!

Nicole_S, Apr 2026
This is not a casual ride in the canals showing some of the mansions along the water. You will go out to open waters at full speed and being thrown around by rough waters! It was still fun, but not what we expected! I read a lot of reviews that did not inform me of this, so I wanted to make sure that guests are aware you are boating through the canals for the first 15 minutes, then out in the open water for about 40 minutes, then back through the canals for another 15 minutes. Unfortunately the speakers on the boat didn’t work and they announced it. We had seats in the back so we did not learn/hear a thing about the owners and their historical homes. Unfortunately, half of drink menu was out of stock and they did announce that to guests. There are different seating options that vary in cost due to the view. You are instructed to arrive 25 minutes before departure. But the trick is- just show up 5 minutes before boat leaves and you can sit in the front (higher costing seats!) without paying the higher price! The last minute guests are awarded with the best seats.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hi Nicole, thanks for taking the time to share this. We're sorry the cruise was bumpier than expected. We typically only head out to open water when conditions are calm, but we know that can still be a different experience than the canal portion. We also apologize for the speaker not working in the back and for the limited drink options. We've shared your feedback with our team. Thanks for cruising with Sea Rocket in Fort Lauderdale.

Fun

Linda_Z, Mar 2026

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Beautiful ride through the marina. Saw beautiful boats and properties along the way. Great guide, would recommend.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you, Jill! So glad the cruise delivered on the scenery. Fort Lauderdale never disappoints from the water with Sea Rocket. Hope to see you back soon!

Wonderful Sunset Cruise.

Michael_F, Mar 2026
Excellent views of yachts and mansions. Outstanding narration and boating experience. Sunset was clouded over, but another sunset would have great views. Highly Recommeded.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you, Michael! So glad the narration and scenery made it a wonderful cruise even without the full sunset. We'd love to have you back on the water with Sea Rocket in Fort Lauderdale for that perfect golden sky!

It was very short look at the sunset. But a nice boat ride. Got to see a lot of yachts and mega million dollar homes. I highly recommend.

Thank you, Lisa! Hope to see you back soon!

Awesome sunset cruise experience!

Kate_N, Mar 2026
Super fun, great guys leading the cruise! We stayed to the inlets because the ocean would have been too rough. Everything was beautiful, it was the perfect amount of time and they had drinks and snacks for purchase (not too expensive).

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you, Kate! Glad the crew made the call to keep things smooth and that you still had a beautiful cruise. Hope to see you back soon!

Excellent sunset tour - highly recommended!

Jonathan_S, Mar 2026
Excellent experience! Nice boat, comfy seats. Gorgeous sunset views. Fun fact-filled tour of water front homes and yachts of the mega rich. Easy parking right there; with the parking slip provided at the end of the tour the cost drops to $10 - nice! We paid extra for the bow seating and that was great. Knowledgeable, funny tour guide, and a great experience overall. Great from start to finish.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you, Jonathan! So glad everything came together for a great evening, from the bow seats to the sunset to the tour guide's commentary. Hope to see you back on the water with Sea Rocket in Fort Lauderdale soon!

Claire_V, Mar 2026
Easy going crew, pleasant way to spend a few hours in the area. Sunset is pretty and the narration during the second half of tour was interesting.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you, Claire! Glad the crew and the sunset made for a pleasant evening on the water with Sea Rocket in Fort Lauderdale. Hope to see you back soon!

Relaxing boat ride

Teka_E, Mar 2026
Pay the extra to sit up front. The unobstructed views was worth it. But if all the seats don’t get sold they let the other the guests that didn’t pay the extra money fill in so a little frustrating that they got the same thing for no extra money. We did enjoy the ride. The crew was very pleasant and the fun facts on the way back made the trip interesting too. Glad we did it.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you, Teka! So glad you enjoyed the ride and found the front seats worth it. We appreciate the feedback on how unsold seats are handled and will take that into consideration. Hope to see you back on the water with Sea Rocket in Fort Lauderdale soon!
